Yes, but normal websites might not. There’s no reason to if the amount of data being transferred is so small. Even large transfers, particularly streaming video providers, will have trouble feeding data to you at 1 Gbps simply because the network interface on the server might be saturated, the switch it’s connected to might have a slower CPU, the DNS server might be tossing your data into a queue or have a slower CPU itself. There are SO MANY hops between you and whatever data you’re trying to access, and every one of them influences the speed at which data will get to you. I’m not saying gigabit speeds aren’t worth paying for, but not everyone needs those speeds, especially if their ISP’s hardware isn’t up to snuff.
